A Temporary  Media Laboratory for Tactical Media
@ Imagine IC in Amsterdam Southeast
September 12 - 22, 2002


Opening Program: Thursday September 12 18.00 hrs

Imagine IC - Bijlmerplein 1006 - 1008 Amsterdam


Full Program and Workshop descriptions can be found on the Next 5 Minutes
website:
http://www.n5m.org

Website Imagine IC
http://www.imagineic.nl


Imagine IC, the new centre for the visual representation of migration and
cultures, is the location for a temporary public media laboratory from
September 12th till 22nd. Open at all times to the wider audience, artists,
campaigners, local and international media makers and activists will develop
and discuss their work for 10 days, hold workshops with local media groups,
present examples, realise live media programs on-line and via radio and tv,
and
execute various projects. This Tactical Media Laboratory (short: TML) will
be
the first of an international series of TMLs, organised in various cities,
and
on different continents.


The Amsterdam TML will focus on the relationship between media and migrant
cultures.
At the heart of our concern is the question who is given a voice in the
contemporary media landscape, and which voices are left out.  How can the
individual, as well as the most diverse as possible representation of
cultural
and political groups, make their own voice be heard by media?

Workshops and presentations will run continuously around themes such as:
Virtual Shelter, net.radio and Home-Land Connections, GenderChangers: Women
and
Technology, Migration and Illegality, Wireless Media, and the Power of
Personal
Testimony. The TML is the joint effort of a large number of artists and
media
groups, amongst others: ambient tv, ASCII, De Balie, Harwood, dyne.org, Waag
Society, RAZO, NYU Center for Media, Culture and History, Gender Changers
Academy, expertbase.net, ghetto.ru, Paradox, Salto, and many more.

All of the following workshops and presentations are open to the public, and
are free of charge:

Virtual Shelter
First Public Meeting Thursday Sept 12 14.00-18.00
Midpoint Public Review Thursday Sept 19 18.00-21.00
Final Public Meeting Saturday Sept 21 12.00-16.00

Virtual Shelter is an initiative in which a group of refugees will be
working
on a long term project with Imagine IC, Paradox, and the Amsterdam Tactical
Media Lab to develop an online environment for refugees. This will be a
space
where refugees can network together privately, access vital information and,
on
a more symbolic level, become a space for personal testimony.

Migration and Illegality
How the Schengen Information System Works Friday Sept 20 18.00-21.00
Debate and Discussion Saturday Sept 21 18.00-21.00

How can illegal people tell their own stories while still remaining
"invisible"
to the authorities? What can be done against the systems used to catagories
and
register people, such as Schengen Information System, a huge database in
Strasbourg containing files on illegal immigrants? One presentation will
cover
this Schengen system, while a debate will ask these and other important
questions.

Wireless Networks
Outdoor Wireless Action: Koopavond ZO Thursday Sept 12 18.00-21.00
Outdoor Wireless Action: (Location TBA) Saturday Sept 14 14.00-17.00
Outdoor Wireless Action: Koopavond ZO Thursday Sept 19 18.00-21.00
Outdoor Wireless Action: (Location TBA) Saturday Sept 21 14.00-17.00
Wireless Tech Workshop Sunday Sept 15 @ Imagine IC: Antenna Building
12.00-15.00
Wireless Panel Discussion Sunday Sept 15 15.00-18.00

Several tactical implementations of wireless technology will be experimented
with during this media lab, including mobile public access-points placed in
the
streets during the koopavonds. There will be hands-on workshops (how to
build
your own antenna) and discussions about the risks (legal and otherwise) of
open
access-points.

GenderChangers: Women and Technology
Hardware workshops Every Day 15.00 - 18.00
Basic Audio workshop Tuesday Sept 17 19.00-21.00
Digital Photography workshop Friday Sept 20 19.00-21.00

The GenderChangers Academy will present a series of workshops during the TML
aimed at providing hands-on training for women interested in media
technology.
These workshops will include sessions on recording and streaming audio and
video, on DJing and VJing, and on computer hardware and building your own PC
from parts.

Open Media Studio/Internet Radio and Homeland Connections
Every Evening 20.00-22.00

The Open Media Studio provides a free space for personal expression and
communication, using the internet as the connecting medium. Technical
support
from the ASCII group, RAZO (Radio Zuidoost) and various international guests
will be on hand to make net.radio broadcasts every evening. These broadcasts
operate in connection with the Internet Radio workshop being held at the
RAZO
studios, which aim to connect local radio makers with their home countries.

Expertbase
Everyone is an Expert workshop Pt 1 Tuesday Sept 17 12.00-17.00
Everyone is an Expert workshop Pt 2 Wednesday Sept 18 12.00-17.00

Expertbase is a site for people, who are not found in any commercial or
official databases. A site for people, who are being ignored by vulgar head-
hunters and usually excluded from the labour market -- either because of
their
residence permit status or because of their origins, but in the last
instance
because of their unique abilities and singular qualifications.

NINE
NINE: walk-in studio Saturday Sept 21 12.00-14.00
NINE: walk-in studio Thursday Sept 19 19.00-21.00
NINE: walk-in studio Monday Sept 16 12.00-16.00

In the last year Graham Harwood worked as artist in residence of Waag
Society
at NINE, a storytelling tool. This is a very user-friendly version of
professional multimediaprogrammes: a basic grid of nine images offers room
to
personal stories build from pictures, texts, sounds and videoimages.

Subject: Possibilities of a Beautiful Love

To those on the list in the San Francisco area, please come by this
Saturday, Sept 7th, 3-5pm.to the Hosfelt Gallery (address below)

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

3 September ­ 12 October 2002
Reception: Saturday 7 September, 3 - 5 p.m.


MARC LAFIA
Possibilities of a Beautiful Love

For this exhibition, Marc Lafia explores his interest in film as a series of
frames, with each frame being the particular of an instant.  ³An instant
when taken from a film becomes something else,² says Lafia.  He uses the
1962 Michelangelo Antonioni film ³Eclipse² as source material.  Isolating
several frames from the film, he has altered, decelerated, and projected
them on separate walls.

Hosfelt Gallery is located at 430 Clementina (between Howard and Folsom) at
Fifth Street.  Hours are Tuesday through Saturday 11:00 - 5:30.  For more
information, call 415 495 5454 or visit www.hosfeltgallery.com.

Subject: Call for Submissions "The Netizen - 1992/3 - 2002/3)

                     Call for Submission
            for upcoming issue of the Amateur Computerist
             The emergence of the netizen - 1992/1993 - 2002/2003
                   What has been the evolution?


The emergence of the netizen was formulated by Michael Hauben as part 
of the online research he was doing in 1992/1993.  He recognized that 
there were people online who considered themselves to be citizens of 
the net (net.citizen). These users were seeking to spread access for 
all to the Net. They understood the importance of the Net in
spreading human to human computer facilitated communication. These 
users recognized the need to contribute to make the Net a valuable 
resource for all.

Michael formulated the concept in an introduction to the new world 
that was being born online. (See introduction and conclusion to 
"The Net and the Netizen: The Impact the Net has on People's Lives", 
first posted in 1993, and then published in a print edition in 1997 
and also available online: http://www.columbia.edu/~hauben/netbook ) 

Some of Michael's early research appeared on Usenet and then in the 
Amateur Computerist newsletter. His research inspired others to 
apply or develop the concept of netizen. 

It is now 10 years later. We would like to document the further 
development and application of the concept of netizen (and of 
the vision of the future of the net) that developed since
Michael's research in 1992/1993. Also we want to project into the 
future about what the emergence of the netizen can mean to the 
further development of the Internet and of our society in general.

We are seeking submissions, including articles, poems, cartoons, 
stories, plays etc. that develop or explore the concept of Netizen 
that has emerged along with the development of the Internet and 
Usenet.

Submissions are due Sept 30, 2002. Please write and let us know if you 
will have a submission or if you have an idea/interest/suggestion
for the upcoming issue.

Long live the netizen and netizenship.

Subject: program of internet researchers conference (maastricht/nl)

The full program:
http://aoir.org/2002/

Internet Research 3.0: NET / WORK / THEORY
Maastricht, The Netherlands, October 13-16 2002

The Internet has become an integral, ubiquitous part of everyday life
in many social domains and international contexts. Yet, most of the
public attention on cyberspace remains fueled by utopian or dystopian
visions, rather than being informed by the growing body of research
on the Internet as a complex fact of modern life.

Internet Research (IR) 3.0, an international and interdisciplinary
conference of the Association of Internet Researchers (A.o.I.R.),
will feature a variety of perspectives on Internet research, in order
to develop a better theoretical and pragmatic understanding of the
Internet. Building on the previous well-attended international
conferences, the IR 3.0 will bring together prominent scholars,
researchers, and practitioners from many disciplines, fields and
countries for a program of presentations, panel discussions, and
informal exchanges.

This year's theme is Net/Work/Theory. Contributors are called to
reflect on how to theorize what we know about the Internet and on how
to apply what we know theoretically in practice. The conference will
be held for the first time in Europe, whose intellectual environments
have traditionally been a source of social and cultural theory.

IR 3.0 will be hosted by the International Institute of Infonomics in
the beautiful city of Maastricht in the Netherlands. As the city in
which one of the key treaties of the European Union was signed,
Maastricht also symbolizes a changing Europe in a changing
international setting. The conference will provide opportunities to
network, learn from other researchers, hear from leading players in
Internet development, and enjoy the "art of fine living" of
Maastricht, in the south of the Netherlands.
